ENGINE & HARDWARE

The OLA S1 motor produces 5500 W of power. The OLA S1 has dual-wheel braking system with front and rear disc brakes. The Ola S1 is constructed with a tubular frame supported by a swingarm-mounted monoshock and a single-sided front fork. It comes with 220mm front and 180mm rear discs with CBS standard for braking.
